We had such a lovely stay at Browns, close to all the tourist attractions as well as a lot of wedding venues in the area. Helen and the team goes over and above expectations to make you feel at home. The rooms are beautifully put together with a country modern feel. Situated in the peaceful surroundings of the Magaliesberg mountains. Ideal for people that are coming for weddings, who love nature, adventure sports, or just to break away from the Rat Race. I am a trail runner and Browns is 2km away from Van Gaalens Trails, that has over 100km of trails. We will definitely be back in the near future!

Thanks for an enjoyable weekend. Place is very quiet and neat. I like that it is so close to all the places of interest a round Harties area. Will love to do it again. The only thing I would have liked is a breakfast serves on the premises. Otherwise it was perfect for me.

We stayed at Browns Cottage over the weekend when we travelled up from Durban to see Michael Buble at Sun City. We found David and Helen to be very hospitable and they made sure we had all we needed. Should we come up that way again we will definitely stay there again. Ideal for a peaceful get-away-from-it-all break. Thanks.

We had a very comfortable stay at Browns. I really liked the funky modern décor and was happy in the Pecan Cottage. It is very central to anything in Hartebeespoor. Lovely to relax at and just look at the mountain and the view.

Even though this review should have been posted roughly 2 years ago already, I just had to add a review as our stay at Browns Cabin was such a memorable time for my husband and I (rather late than never). We were lucky enough to visit the Cabin during the most beautiful wet weather, which transformed the landscape into the most beautiful green I've ever seen and added in the tranquility it has to offer. Everything was perfect, from friendly hosts to perfect decor and amazing views. I would recommend Browns Cabin to anyone who wants to escape from the hustle and bustle of city life for a few days. The Cabin was affordable and exceeded my expectations and I would love to go back there someday.

My husband and I and the kids had a wonderful time at the Cabin, it was beautiful. We went there for 1 night for our 5yr wedding anniversary.
So peaceful and relaxing with stunning views.
The cabin is lovely, comfortable and so beautifully decorated! Everything was so clean and fresh, nice linen and towels, and nice little "extra's" were provided like bubble bath and Valpre water's in the fridge. It was very special. Definitely will go there again.

Our stay at Browns Cabin was absolutely fantastic. I at first didn't know what to expect and was a little nervous about what we would find since I planned the night as a surprise for my boyfriend. What we found took our breath away, it is located on the most beautiful pecan nut farm with the best view on the Magalies mountains. The cabin itself is a modern, yet very romantic little destination with everything you need and friendly hosts ready to assist you with whatever you need.
We can't complain about anything, our stay was fantastic and we would definitely do it again. It is a safe destination (safer that the average South African destination, we do live in South Africa, never forget that), considering we forgot our fondue outside on the stoep the whole night and it was still there the next morning.
I'd recommend Browns Cabin to anyone and we can't wait to go back for a night or two.

The cabin is very romantic.

The small detail, such as Lint chocolate on the pillow really makes the stay just extra special, and the mood is of relaxation and calmness. The cabin is a treasure in this country and we can't wait to go there again.

So friendly and warm. Nothing was too much trouble. The cottage was beautifully decorated and there was meticulous attention to detail. Lovely touches, such as scented candles, luxury soaps and extra blankets. Would have been great, though, to have a shower rather than/in addition to a bath.
